http://www.example.com (original host #1)
http://www.example.com/contactus.html (original host #1)
http://www.example.com/news.asp (windows host #2)

As you see in the sample scenario above, the news.asp page would resolve to the second windows host

In all three of those URIs, www.example.com **IS** the host. Talking about "resolving to a different host" doesn't really make sense - le_gber's suggestions were good IMHO.

Is this kind of configuration possible?

No, unless you set up a proxy server on the original host to forward the requests to the new server.

If the original server is just hosting static content, what are the "software support issues" that are stopping you from moving everything to the new host?
